"What’s surreal about this moment is that all of our systems do the opposite of what they claim to do.
The military industrial complex purports to provide defense but actually causes wars.
The medical industrial complex purports to provide health but actually causes disease.
The food industrial complex purports to provide nutrition but actually causes malnutrition.
The social media industrial complex purports to provide connection but actually causes loneliness.
The higher education industrial complex purports to create knowledge and freedom but instead churns out corporate propaganda and debt slaves.
The biggest industries in our economy are toxic grifts that block us from obtaining the things we want and need from them."
Dr. Toby Rogers

America encourages its political allies in Europe to promote this revival of spirit, and the growing influence of patriotic European parties indeed gives cause for great optimism. Our goal should be to help Europe correct its current trajectory.
